You know what they say, carpenters have the worse constructed houses, electricians have the worse wired etc...lol....Just kidding. I'm with Dickey. You being an electrician, I'd venture to guess your wire extensions are done well. I'd look for a pinched wire in the control housing. Very common.

Figured it out! Thank god. After checking for shorts and continuity testing all the switches. Im kind of embaressed of what the problem is but maybe someone else will appreciate it. After the wiring all checked out i started digging around the waring harness.. and realized i had been plugged into the wrong connector the whole time!!! What a dummy
